A much better alternative to the original plastic cover from BMW, in addition more expensive
The Cylinder Engine Cover on the BMW R nine T looks very solid and inspires confidence, I hesitated for a very long time whether to buy a gmole or a cover in the form of a slider. It seems to me that it is a compromise between functionality, not disfiguring the appearance of the gmols on a heritage naked motorcycle. The other thing is that the gmole protrude a lot beyond the outline of the motorcycle, which when folded in a corner can probably cause them to rub on the asphalt ( it's a naked not an enduro) and when squeezing in traffic.
The kit allows you to install plug and play, the only downside is that we unscrew one screw, which acted as a minus pole when charging the battery, now we can hook the bracket to the cover itself , because it is not painted.
Tankbag very useful especially in the city. A large smartphone, wallet and two 330ml cans of soda go in without a problem. Magnets hold very well, tested at high speeds did not move at all. Zippers work properly, a waterproof cover is a useful addition. Tankbag tested on a Yamaha fz6 motorcycle. For this price, I definitely recommend.
Cool bag.
The previous model OL421 / 431 18l was better in my opinion but no longer available, Motobanda made a Video about it.
The attachment of the straps on the handlebar side should be on a snap buckle as in the previous one and not 2xD it would make it easier to use because now after removing the front strap on my Fz6 s2 I would need a wire to push the strap under the handlebar again to fasten on 2xD. You can remake it yourself, which I did, although I think there should be buckles as standard. Not a well thought out strap attachment other than that Super.
I bought the panniers for my enduro and it is perfect. High quality workmanship and material used. Looks great on the bike. The volume variation is absolutely amazing too, I appreciate that. This is a very practical and purposeful accessory.
The tankbag fits my 2005 Honda Honret 600.
The only thing I can complain about is the opening of the zipper (sometimes problematic) and that the rain cover is not put on the tankbag, but on what you have inside.
